The Inspiration Behind the Name:
Ohana is a Hawaiian word that means family and community. My personal journey began when I moved to Hawaii by myself some years ago. I was welcomed into that community with open arms and warm hearts and was immediately cared for and made to feel like I was always part of their Ohana. This is simply the Hawaiian way, also known as the Aloha Spirit, to be warm and loving, kind and caring to themselves, to others and to the land. For me, it was a way of being and a level of human kindness that touched me so deeply that it continues to inspire me both personally and professionally today.
That experience, in addition to the humbling amount of love and support that I receive from my local family and friends, my New England Ohana, is what really has made it possible for me to pursue and realize my dreams of opening my own holistic wellness center and taking care of my community.
My Mission:
It is my mission, not only to spread the Aloha Spirit and make Holistic Healing accessible to you, my Ohana...but also, to inspire and empower you to take care of yourself, take care of each other and to take care of our environment.
At Ohana Acupuncture and Wellness Center, Community Healing is on the Horizon...and I very much look forward to sharing the journey with you!
Most Sincerely,
Julie
